That was great. It's incurable, I think.

I remember years ago a schoolfriend's father caught her puffing on a cigarette. He sat her down and made her smoke until she was sick. It did work because she never tried it again. In the same manner, I thought I could cure myself if I just bought more and more pearls (in rapid succession) - the urge would just sort of fizzle out eventually. But it hasn't.

And breakfast pearls, post lunch pearls, after dinner pearls, pre-bedtime pearls, cold and flu pearls, job interview pearls, going-to-the-bank pearls, gardening pearls, etc. Really, some of us are getting to that stage. It makes perfect sense if you think about it!

What do you mean one, one , one???!!!! It is multiple, multiple, multiple!!!

I fancy at least three matching lavender ropes in three pearl sizes at a time, but my daughter Kether routinely wears 5-7 strands at a time to work. She likes to mix and match and does it with a lot of panache-- I think. Don't you agree, Pattye?

She must have 30-40 strands to choose from and that doesn't even include the several strands I prefer.

Cold and Flu pearls??? I could have used them the last few days. I think I got Josh's cold!

Only Pattye, Caitlin and Kether can make you feel like a pearl piker! They were draped in numerous gorgeous strands on the day I met them and they couldn't be any prettier, with or without the pearls.

Well, the day I first met Caitlin and Kether, I was wearing one demure strand. They soon found out I had several additional ropes with me, and insisted I put them on right then! Caitlin, You are soooooo right, multiples are a lot more fun and totally classy!

Caitlin has knotted so many beautiful ropes, and bracelets and they are gorgeous layered together! Many are the highest quality pearls (fromPP), so they just glow and catch light.

Now don't let Blaire kid you, she wore pearly wonders, too, and looked amazing in them!!! Had you hung around a little more with us, Blaire, you too might have gotten a "pearl makeover"! Feel better soon!
